WOMAN DROPS PHONE, GETS STUCK IN ROCK CREVICE

A woman taking pictures in Australia’s Hunter Valley region dropped her phone and then got stuck upside-down in a rock crevice trying to retrieve it. This happened on Oct. 12. By the time emergency responders arrived, she was hanging by her feet for over an hour. It took seven hours to rescue her. A photo taken during the rescue shows the soles of her feet wedged in a narrow space between two boulders. Workers had to remove several heavy boulders to create a safe access point to reach her. The woman, 23-year-old Matilda Campbell, described herself as highly accident-prone and vowed “no more rock exploration for me for a while.”
* Then she tripped on the trail and broke her arm.
* It’s Australia. Aren’t people there used to being upside-down?
* Literally, between a rock and a hard place.
* If only there was some kind of cord you could use to hang your phone around your neck.
* If you’re not going to bring a buddy when you go exploring around rocks, bring a jackhammer.
